Yamaha

Yamaha, based in Japan, is one of the world’s most respected instrument makers. They changed the game with the DX7 in the 1980s, pioneering FM synthesis that defined the sound of a decade. Today they continue with powerful workstations like Montage and MODX, plus digital pianos found on stages everywhere. Yamaha gear is known for reliability, road-readiness and excellent support. For musicians who want long-lasting instruments that still inspire creativity, Yamaha remains a top choice.

Tags

Analog

Products using analogue sound-generation or signal-processing circuitry, also commonly written as analog. Analogue instruments shape continuously varying electrical signals and are often chosen for direct controls, natural variation and a character that responds organically to performance and modulation.

Polyphonic

Instruments capable of playing multiple notes or voices at the same time. Polyphony supports chords, layered pads and overlapping notes, although the available voice count and how voices are allocated vary between instruments.

Synth

Products centred on electronic sound generation and synthesis. This tag brings together keyboard, desktop, modular and performance instruments that create or substantially shape their own sounds rather than serving only as controllers.
